Hélène GEORGET

Senior Print Designer | EMILIO PUCCI

I’m a print designer. After a graduation in fine Art, I open my own studio and workshop in Paris 10 years ago. It was mainly about print and graphic design for a large range of brands, from Carven to Lacoste, Aigle or emergent brands like Haus Coudeyre or Robert Normand. I moved my studio in Bruxelles in 2012 before joining the Pucci team in Florence and then one year ago in Milan.

Mmm, waitress and bartender during my studies.... Quite interesting to have a look on a lot of people, how they behave or dress.

2. Please describe, in your own words, what your job is and what work it entails.

I’m a print designer for Emilio Pucci. I create some visual stories according to the season mood, Firstly doing some iconographic researchs, then drawing and developping the seasonal prints for womenswear and accessories. I’m in charge of the scarves collection too.

3. How did you discover that the creative world was right for you? Was there a time in your life that you credit to this discovery? What was there train of events that brought you to where you are today?

I think I ‘ve always wanted to draw, "being a drawer". ... Staying in a quiet space and having time to create atmosphere and stories through drawing, compositions and colors seems the perfect way to work for me.

4. In your constantly growing and expanding industry, how do you find inspiration to keep your work fresh, innovative and relevant?

I try to escape each time I can. I travel alone, most of the time. Being lost in towns I don’t know is the best way to think out of the box, feeling the atmosphere and getting new ideas. On a daily basis, books and exhibitions are my main source of inspiration.

5. If you had to pick one piece of work or project that you are most proud of, more for the creative work and innovation it required, rather than its recognition or industry “success,” what would it be?

My first collection of prints for Guillaume Henry when he used to be the art director of Carven. He was’nt really "into prints" as he told me firstly but we build a really nice collaboration and this collection was stunning at the end. Even Beyonce wore it! ;)
